I just have to work in IE 5.5 and later so have you got a solution for that
you are great!! Maybe I can narrow it down to juts IE 6.0 and later browsers
too.
Do you have any example of that clever hidden IFRAME elements so I wouldn't
have to reload a page.

The Flash Form Application is a new feature for Flash MX 2004
Professional that makes Flash feel more like the visual layout
tools in Microsoft Visual Studio. Many Flash programmers still
prefer the traditional way of designing applications in Flash
for efficiency's sake despite this feature.
In Flash, you could probably use the loadVars object's
sendAndLoad() method to make sequential calls to PHP to set
the current listbox's selection and request content for the
next. To PHP, it'd just look like a regular GET or POST form
query. Repeat until you're done for all the boxes. :)
In most recent browsers, you could actually load data dynamically
without reloading the page via the clever use of hidden IFRAME
elements, though I'd seriously recommend against it. Due to
differing DOM implementations, you'll probably need to do a
good bit of testing and code-branching in Javascript to handle
the different browsers. Even then, certain people will still
be "left in the dark," because they have the "wrong" browser(s).
